It is well known that the KVV normal Auger spectra of CO subsequent to the C 1s and O 1s photoionization exhibit a rich vibrational fine structure, which is due to the fact that the resulting dications are stable with respect to dissociation. We present high-resolution normal Auger spectra together with the corresponding photoelectron spectra. All four spectra are fitted parallel using a Franck-Condon fit procedure which allows to take vibrational lifetime interference contributions into account. With this analysis we were able to identify for the first time contributions of the O 1s−1 → X3Π Auger transition in the spectrum. In addition, the equilibrium distances, vibrational energies, and anharmonicities for the dicationic final states X3Π, a1Σ+, b1Π, A3Σ+, and d1Σ+ were derived and compared with theoretical results [1]. While for the final states a1Σ+, b1Π, A3Σ+, and d1Σ+ an excellent agreement between experiment and theory is found, we observe significant differences for the state X3Π. We assume that these differences are due to an avoided level crossing which is not taken into account in the calculations.
